Post-apocalyptic game: I survive at sea by scavenging for trash.

The ultimate poisoning technique in period martial arts films: Apply poison to weapons!

To prevent the water spirit from seeing her poisoning the sword, Lin Zhaoyin turned her back to the source of the poison. She poured a little venom from the bottle onto the Wind and Thunder Sword, then shook the sword to coat it evenly.

Lin Zhaoyin didn't have any tools to apply the ointment, nor did she dare to apply it directly with her hands, to avoid accidentally poisoning herself.

Seeing that Lin Zhaoyin had put away the bottle of venom, the water sprite flew smugly around her again.

Lin Zhaoyin seized the opportunity and swung her Wind and Thunder Sword at the water spirit.

The water sprite that came into contact with the venom did indeed change; its body, which originally emitted a blue glow, gradually turned purplish-black, and the glow gradually dimmed.

Lin Zhaoyin stared at the water sprite's health bar, which was decreasing at a steady rate. In less than a minute, the bar reached zero.

[You have defeated a level 6 Water Sprite, gaining 60 experience points and 500ml of drinking water.]

Since the water didn't come with its own container, Lin Zhaoyin took out the fish tank she had just acquired and put the spilled water into it. Not knowing how this water differed from ordinary water, Lin Zhaoyin decided to store this drinking water separately from the others.

Only after confirming that there were no other monsters outside did Lin Zhaoyin return to the stone house.

She quickly opened the chat function and saw that Lin Wanyi had left her a message asking about her situation.

Lin Zhaoyin immediately replied to her sister's message: "I'm fine, it's all taken care of."

Looking at the server chat again, sure enough, everyone was asking for help online. Freezing attacks are indeed effective, but some players don't have these skills and have to find other ways.

Lin Zhaoyin quickly posted her solution.

Players without freezing abilities can use poison to attack. Apply poison to your weapon before attacking; this water sprite is vulnerable to poison. Once the poison hits it, it will die on its own. It's recommended not to touch it directly with your hands. Tested and working!

Lin Zhaoyin's appearance gave players hope, and many people didn't even have time to express their gratitude before rushing to try her out.

After a few minutes, people started to report the results in the chat channel.

[Success! Applying the venom really works, the water sprite is dead!]

Thank you so much, sir! What would we do without you?

I will always support Kobayashi, you are my god!

The water sprite has been dealt with, but a new problem has arisen. Everyone waited all day only to encounter this one monster, which only dropped water. Does this mean there will be no food drops when fighting monsters?

Given the game's tendency to drop whatever you're missing, water resources might become a problem in the next few days.

Regardless of what happens next, players can only take it one step at a time for now.

I thought the first day of the storm was over, but little did I know that this water sprite was just the beginning.

After the players finished complaining to each other and had just fallen asleep, another water sprite showed up.

Moreover, every two hours or so thereafter, a water sprite would appear to attack the island.

Although everyone had figured out how to kill the water sprites, having one every few seconds was exhausting, and they couldn't sleep well at all. Some with poor sleep quality even suffered from insomnia until dawn.

It's dawn on the island at 6 a.m., but the repeated nighttime awakenings the previous day left everyone exhausted, and even Lin Zhaoyin, who was used to waking up early, slept in.

Lin Zhaoyin finally woke up groggily around 9 a.m.

Day 25 of the game calendar, cloudy with occasional tornadoes, 13 degrees Celsius.

The wind and rain outside had stopped, but the sky was still overcast, as if the storm had passed.

However, Lin Zhaoyin stared at the words "tornado" on the weather forecast for a long time and could not calm down.

Unlike the previous two rounds, the storm disasters do not increase in intensity over time; instead, the storm disasters change every day.

Almost no one has ever seen a real tornado; they only know about them from books, television, or the internet. If a tornado were to hit the island, could this stone shelter really withstand it?

Lin Zhaoyin also has to worry about the three plots of land on her island. If a tornado were to take away her apple trees, she would go crazy!

However, since the weather is still alright, Lin Zhaoyin still plans to go to work first.

After checking the three plots of land, the apple trees were still firmly rooted in the soil, and the watermelons and potatoes were growing normally, even after yesterday's wind and rain.

Casting out her fishing net, Lin Zhaoyin sat down next to the apple tree and began fishing for treasure chests.

The weather forecast said there would be occasional tornadoes, which means the tornadoes would come in waves, at least giving the players some breathing room so they wouldn't be completely stuck outside.

We obtained enough water resources last night, so as long as we can still fish for treasure chests, even if the seafood monsters don't come, we will at least have a way to obtain food.

Lin Zhaoyin didn't browse the chat channel while fishing for treasure chests today; she still needed to focus on the situation on the island, especially preventing enemies or tornadoes from attacking from behind.

I sat there for two hours, and the island remained calm and peaceful; nothing happened.

Today, the speed of catching treasure chests and nets returned to normal. Lin Zhaoyin put away her morning's spoils and went back to the stone house to prepare lunch.

Lin Zhaoyin had just set up the pot when she heard unusual noises outside.

Looking out the window, I saw a dark shadow approaching on the sea.

A tornado is coming!

Lin Zhaoyin lost all interest in cooking, her eyes fixed on the direction the dark shadow had come from. Soon, the tornado slowly revealed itself, and by the time it approached the island, it had become a colossal creature that blotted out the sky.

Lin Zhaoyin felt the entire island trembling, and she almost lost her balance. But she still pressed herself against the window, watching intently, fearing that her apple trees, watermelons, and potatoes would be damaged.

The apple tree swayed from side to side in the wind, and Lin Zhaoyin swayed along with the island's vibrations.

[Ding! Your shelter's durability is decreasing. Current durability: 90]

[Ding! Your shelter's durability is decreasing. Current durability: 85]

[Ding! Your shelter's durability is decreasing. Current durability: 80]

The tornado attack lasted for nearly half an hour, and the stone house's durability dropped to 80. Lin Zhaoyin also clearly saw that when the tornado left, it left behind a pile of wreckage on her island.

Lin Zhaoyin first took out the materials to repair the shelter, otherwise, when the next tornado comes, the durability will start at 80 and may drop even faster.

After repairing the shelter, Lin Zhaoyin excitedly went out to collect trash!

It must be said that the trash brought by the tornado was incredibly diverse, and Lin Zhaoyin was having a great time picking it up.

[Sludge Monster, Level 6, Nature Race, Attack 29, Defense 26, Agility 10]

A monster message suddenly popped up in Lin Zhaoyin's field of vision, startling her so much that she jumped back on the spot.

Why are there weirdos pretending to be trash?
